Friendly Ohio greets the Class of ' 43 REGISTRATION DAY, La- Vaughn Keplar (second irom right) waited her turn at Chubb Library. Then she checked her class schedule. Dean Voigt approved a minor change in LaVaughn ' s schedule. Dr. H. H. Roseberry gave her a card for each of her classes. LaVaughn spent an hour in tedious writing, chief gripe of registerites. The task completed, she was besieged by salesmen. Next day, she paid her fees in Ewing. Afterwards, she relaxed with Herman Wren and Dean Heydick in the new Student Grill. V I 16

Freshmen: class 18 WITH the scarlet of the maples comes the green of the fresh- man . . . enviable in that they are seeing the beauty of the campus for the first time, through unaccustomed eyes . . . keenly thrilling to its color and sweep, even as the jaded seniors once did. The pungent odor of burning leaves rouses nostalgia in the hearts of the new-comers . . . though the hectic, happy-go-lucky first days of college leave little time for homesickness. The rush of registration merges into the confusion of finding the many classrooms. Someone helps out a bewildered freshie and an- other fine friendship has begun. Eagerly the first and most glorious football game is anticipated, and rightly so, for no matter what it ' s like, in memory it is a magnificent affair . . . bands blaring, banners gayly beckoning, and a scarlet airplane touch- ing up the post-card sapphire of the cloudless sky ... in memory we always win that first game by a huge margin. The victory celebration adds another to our college memories. The first dance . . . eagerly little Miss Freshman arrays herself in glamorous bib-and-tuck, anxiously awaits her buzzer signal, hurriedly skips downstairs, happily sallies forth with the blind date which the kind junior arranged for her.
